Alcohol and cancer
Drinking alcohol increases the risk of developing some cancers, particularly cancers of the mouth, throat, oesophagus, bowel, liver and breast. Oral cancers are six times more common in alcohol drinkers than in non-drinkers.
It is not just heavy drinking that increases cancer risk. Even drinking small amounts of alcohol increases the risk of cancer, and the more you drink, the greater the risk.
How much should I drink?
Cancer Council recommends that people limit their alcohol consumption. Those who do not drink should not take up drinking alcohol.
For people who do drink alcohol, the recommended amounts are:
- An average of no more than 2 standard drinks a day
- To avoid binge drinking (more than 4 standard drinks in one session)
What is a standard drink?
One standard drink contains 10g of alcohol and equals:
- 100mL of wine
- 30mL (one nip) of spirits
- 60mL (two nips) of sherry
- 285mL (one middy) of normal strength beer
- 450mL (one schooner) of low alcohol (light) beer
- 220-250mL ready to drink alcoholic sodas
Some cocktails contain more than three standard drinks!
Click here for more standard drink information.
But isn't alcohol good for my heart?
The evidence suggesting alcohol in moderation is good for protecting against heart disease is not as strong as was once thought. The Heart Foundation does not recommend alcohol consumption for the treatment or prevention of heart disease. There are many positive things that you can do to reduce your risk of heart disease, such as healthy eating, regular physical activity and not smoking. These measures can also reduce your risk of cancer.
What about different types of alcohol – beer, wine or spirits?
The type of alcohol you drink doesn't appear to make any difference. Beer, wine and spirits all increase the risk of cancer.
Can I drink more on social occasions?
Drinking large amounts of alcohol at once (binge drinking) is not recommended. For people who drink alcohol, the recommendations are an average of no more than two standard drinks a day.
Smoking and alcohol
It has been known for a long time that smoking is harmful to health. The combined effect of smoking and drinking alcohol greatly exceed the risk from either one of these factors alone.
Is alcohol fattening?
Being overweight is also a risk for developing many types of cancers, including bowel, kidney, pancreas, oesophagus, endometrium (lining of the womb) breast (after menopause).
Alcoholic drinks represent 'empty kilojoules' – that is, alcoholic drinks are high in energy (kilojoules) but low in nutritional value, especially when added to sugary mixer drinks. If you drink alcohol in addition to your normal dietary intake without reducing the kilojoules you eat, you may gain weight.
When you drink alcohol you often become less aware of the food you are eating and can easily overeat. Combining fatty foods with alcohol is the worst combination of all for weight gain, so avoid high fat snacks such as chips while drinking. Try low fat crackers or breadsticks instead.
Tips for drinking less
- Switch to low alcohol (light) beer
- Alternate alcoholic drinks with water or soft drinks
- Order only half nips of spirits
- Use water to quench thirst and sip alcoholic drinks slowly
- Don't fill wine glasses to the top
- Wait until your wine glass is empty before topping it up to help keep count of your drinks
- Have a few alcohol-free days during the week, especially if you are a regular drinker
- Offer to be the designated driver
- Socialise with friends in places such as cafes rather than pubs and clubs where binge drinking is less likely and better food choices are available.

Honda has really taken its time in getting an aftermarket supercharger kit for the CR-Z to enthusiasts in the US. It's finally on sale, though, and it makes you wonder if the hybrid hatchback shouldn't have had it from the day it went on sale.
How A Hybrid Becomes A Hot Hatch
Honda invited us to its Southern California North American headquarters last week to take a spin in a very special CR-Z – one modified with a full complement of Honda Performance Development (HPD) components. While the company has been racing with HPD parts for years, this is the first time the automaker has offered them for its street-legal vehicles, and it has chosen this year's SEMA Show in Las Vegas to be the launch venue. Last year, Honda introduced the HPD Supercharged CR-Z Concept a

Expat Tax Basics
For answers to common tax questions check out the real-life Q&A posts on our new Global Tax Matters Blog.*
Your U.S. Income Tax Obligation while Living Abroad
As a U.S. expatriate residing abroad, you have a legal obligation to file U.S. tax returns each year on your worldwide income. GlobalTaxHelp.com is pleased to provide you with the below information about expatriate tax basics. For more personalized answers to your expatriate tax questions, feel free to request more information—there's no obligation.
Foreign Earned Income Exclusion
If you are a full time resident abroad for a full calendar year, or live there for 330 days out of any consecutive 12-month period, you can exclude up to $91,500 of earned income from U.S. Income Taxation for 2010. If you are married, and both of you earn income and reside abroad, you can also exclude up to another $91,500 of your spouse's income from taxation. These exclusions can only be claimed by filing a tax return and are not automatic if you fail to file your Form 1040 for the applicable year (as well as the appropriate forms claiming this exclusion). Earned income is income you earn for your work or services and does not include rental income, dividend or interest income, or other types of income that are not paid for your own personal efforts. You can also claim an additional exclusion or deduction for your foreign housing expenses exceeding a standard amount established by the Federal Government.
Foreign Tax Credits
You may have income for which you've paid foreign tax, but that cannot be excluded from U.S. taxation. GlobalTaxHelp.com can help you to claim Foreign Tax Credits that can be used to partially or completely offset U.S. taxes that accrue on this same income. In higher tax countries, you'll accrue such tax credits faster than you'll ever be able to apply them; in lower tax countries, you will likely be able to apply most or all such tax credits against U.S. tax liability on this same income.
U.S. Tax Treaties with over 60 Countries
The U.S. has Tax Treaties with over 60 other countries. A Tax Treaty is complex and includes many provisions that can benefit any U.S. taxpayer. Tax Treaties codify the objectives of reducing or eliminating double taxation of your income by both countries via reciprocal foreign tax credits (see previous section). Individual tax treaties also address tax issues specific to the two countries involved. If you file your tax return each year while living abroad, the statute of limitations for IRS audits will expire three years after you file those returns. That means the IRS cannot go back (unless there is evidence of fraud) and attempt to audit or change those returns later. You may want to consider filing your return even if you have no income or don't owe taxes in order to force the statute of limitations to run out, thereby eliminating any future problems when you decide to return to the U.S.
U.S. Social Security, Medicare, and Self-Employment Taxes
If you are an offshore employee of a U.S. corporation, that employer will normally withhold Social Security and Medicare taxes on your W-2 earnings. If you are working for a U.S.-based employer in one of the 20-plus countries with which the U.S. has established a Social Security Totalization Treaty, you may cite a closer connection to the foreign country and participate in that country's social insurance system, and not have U.S. Social Security and Medicare taxes withheld from your U.S. pay.
If you are a bonafide employee of a foreign employer and are subject to foreign laws governing their social security tax, you are not required to pay U.S. Social Security tax.
If you are self-employed (an independent contractor), you are obligated to pay, in addition to your income tax, a U.S. Self-Employment tax that is both employer and employee's share of Social Security and Medicare taxes. You must file a Schedule C with your U.S. tax return and pay U.S. Self-Employment Tax on your net earnings by filing a Schedule S-E. The Self-Employment Tax rate is 15.3% of net Schedule C income before any foreign income exclusion and the taxable net self-employment rate is not reduced by the previously mentioned foreign tax credits. Net earnings are income after all legal business expenses are deducted and include the income earned both in a foreign country and in the United States.
Avoiding Penalty and Interest on Tax Due
Even if you file an extension to October 15th, instead of April 15th, to file your US Income Tax Return, be aware that interest and underpayment penalty are charged as of April 15th. Further, the IRS can assess underpayment penalty (and interest) if the tax due is paid by April 15th, but no (or insufficient) estimated tax payments or withholding were made prior to paying the balance due on April 15th. This is because tax law requires sufficient regular payment or withholding (or combination) to be done through out the tax year in order to avoid ALL underpayment penalties.

William E. Nix, Ph.D., President of the Electronic Bible Society
Grant Richison has given all pastors and teachers a new tool to mine the wealth of truth in God's Word. I have always been a proponent of working "smarter not harder" because of the stewardship of my time. When I used "Verse by verse" it literally cut my research time by more than half, not to mention the fact that Dr. Richison has provided access to resources well beyond the volumes on my shelves! While the Word we proclaim never changes, Dr. Richison has provided a new and wonderful tool for our study of it! I believe every serious student of the scriptures who is looking for a portal through which he can have all the necessary resources literally at his fingertips will love Verse by Verse!

AT&T Picks MediaFLO to Deliver Mobile Video
Feb 12, 2007, 4:19 PM by (staff)
AT&T signed an agreement to use Qualcomm's MediaFLO technology to deliver mobile video and TV services to wireless subscribers in the U.S. by late 2007. Like competitor Verizon Wireless, AT&T will offer mobile TV and some video-on-demand content from channels such as CBS, Comedy Central, Fox, MTV, and NBC directly on mobile phones. With many of Europe's GSM carriers picking the DVB-H mobile video standard, AT&T's new agreement with MediaFLO marks a different path for the nation's largest network operator, which will have to spend $1 billion to build a MediaFLO network. The operator will also have to work with its handset partners to incorporate Qualcomm's MediaFLO technology into future designs. Potential pricing information and other terms were not disclosed.

Women-need your advice
Women-need your advice
My GYN. noticed nipple discharge during my yearly exam. He seemed very concerned and sent me for a mammogram/bloodwork. Could this be detox? Has anyone else experienced this? I had not noticed any problems prior to my exam.
Hi Girlygirl,
don't worry about it, I never had this but at 24 had to have a mass removed and it turned out to be fine. I worried myself sick needlessly while I waited for the biopsy/bloodwork etc, when I should have just waited for the tests. I can understand how you feel but if you can, breathe deeply and wait. :)
Blessings and good wishes, dea.
I had this several months back. It was more than likely hormonal imbalance – it went away and never returned.
When I was having the beginning symptoms of my thyroid issues, I had nipple discharge. If it was me I would ask the dr. if you could get a blood panel before you agreed to the mammagram. If it is a hormonal imbalance and the bloodwork discovers it, then you most likely will not need the mammagram. I say this only because if you are not of the age (forty plus years old) where you would typically get the mam. then it would really be an unnecessary procedure if the bloodwork took care of it. (Does that make sense?)
If it is a hormonal imbalance, then raw food is the way to go!
Oh, I guess I should have asked first….have you had a child, or been pregnant in the past? If so, it could be hormonal issues from that as well. I have not nursed my daughter now for over a year and I still have discharge.

A good wrestling video for couples who like these types of fetishes.
Carl promised that if Devin's team won, he'd pay her a hundred dollars or lick her pussy. When he refuses to pay up, Devin has to take him down. Devin incorporates a variety of wrestling techniques in an effort to convince Carl to pay up. When he refuses to open his wallet, Devin suffocates him with her pussy. As the couple rolls around the living room, suffocation scenes are intermingled with scenes of foot fetish. Carl finally gives some, but unsatisfied with his oral efforts, Devin makes him suck her toes and lick her feet.

Lace can be delicate and girly, but it can also be simple and geometric and I love knitting on simple lace patterns because they grow so fast and mould to the body so well. Laika is the perfect cardigan to carelessly throw in your bag as an extra layer with any outfit, pretty but casual, lightweight but not too delicate.
3032, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60" bust
7681, 86, 91, 97, 102, 107, 112, 117, 122, 127, 132, 137, 142, 147, 153 cm bust
Shown in sizes 34 and 48 with zero ease at the bust.
Fingering or heavy laceweight yarn with a suggested gauge of 7-9 sts per inch / 2.5cm. The garter stitch borders are worked with the yarn held double so it will have enough structure using less sturdy yarns than sock yarn, although more loosely spun yarns will obviously be less durable. The stitch patterns used are very stretchy and can be worked successfully in fairly inelastic yarns, but only those that are lightweight, anything too heavy like cotton will cause the sweater to stretch out of shape and won't bounce back. Other than the recommended wool blend, cashmere and alpaca blends would also be good choices. My original prototype for Laika was actually worked in a lofty cashmere laceweight, it doesn't look so great anymore, but it's wonderfully snuggly.
Note: Measure gauge after blocking - lightly stretch just enough to open up the stitch pattern but do not stretch out as much as possible as you might for a lace shawl
Needles and Notions
US 3 / 3.25mm circular, a 24" / 60cm needle can be used for the body of the sweater, but was difficult for the edging, make things easy on yourself and use a 32" / 80cm or longer needle.
US 3 / 3.25mm for your preferred method of working small circumferences in the rnd.
Scrap yarn for holding sts.
Stitch markers.
5/8" / 15-18mm buttons - 20 for sizes 30-34, 22 for sizes 36-46, 24 for sizes 48+

text: Black Coffee Agatha Christie's first play, Black Coffee, from 1930, introduced the Belgian crime-solver Hercule Poirot, and the Alley brings it to life for the annual Summer Chills tradition of mystery plays. Sir Claude has invented a weapon of mass destruction, but the formula has been pilfered, and he has asked M. Poirot to solve the theft. Poirot arrives too late, as Sir Claude has drunk the coffee served him, and gone to his heavenly reward. James Black plays M. Poirot and is excellent, creating a memorable characterization filled with dry humor, and conveying a keen sense of a brilliant mind seething with energy. Sir Claude's daughter-in-law, Lucia, is played by Laura E. Campbell, who is blonde and beautiful and wears clothes like a super-model; she is warm and appealing. Todd Waite as Arthur Hastings, Poirot's assistant, turns what might have been a caricature into a warm, interesting human. The director, Alley Artistic Director Gregory Boyd, certainly steers these actors toward compelling performances. Alley stalwart Jeffrey Bean portrays Dr. Carelli, but has little to do except look slightly sinister. Jay Sullivan plays Sir Claude's son, who must look anxious and be a bit of a hothead, and he does that well. Sir Claude's sister is played by Jennifer Harmon, who adds a poised stage presence and some delightful tipsy humor, while Josie de Guzman, as Sir Claude's niece, generates sex appeal and adds humor and interest. Alley veteran James Belcher creates a vivid Inspector Japp, as well as playing Sir Claude. Scenic design by Linda Buchanan and costume design by Tricia Barsamian are effective and attractive. A mystery play hoary with age is given fresh, triumphant life in a vibrant production, as gifted actors carry it on their talented shoulders. Through August 5. Alley Theatre, 615 Texas St., 713-220-5700. -JJT

Madurai: The Vadamalayan Hospitals of Madurai has coupled medical treatment with tourism especially for those who hail from the north-east,such as Midnapore, Bharampur, Kolkatta and Malda of West Bengal and Sikkim.
The hospital launched its 'North East Indian Medical Tour to Madurai' in September with two patients. Now, at the end of December, the number has risen to 55.
Under this tourism-medical package, the hospital has opened four information centres in the North East. It picks up patients at the railway station and puts them at the guesthouse of the hospital where those accompanying the patients can stay free of cost.
Provisions and Bengali type of utensils are provided to them so that they can prepare their own food.
Will there not be a language problem? No, says the co-ordinators appointed by the hospitals to help in the doctor-patient communication.
After the treatment, the hospital, if patients are willing, arranges transport and other facilities to tour Rameswaram, Kanyakumari and Kodaikanal.
Arrangement in Maldives
The hospital, which has made similar arrangements in Maldives, has planned to conduct super speciality medical camps in the North East.

Woodcliff Lake, N.J. – March 25, 2013… BMW today announced a new M Performance Power Kit for the 2012 model year and later BMW 335i Sedan and 335i xDrive Sedan models. The M Performance Power Kit joins the existing M Performance Parts line which includes chassis, aerodynamics, exhaust system components, and trim accessories. Developed through consultation by the engineers at BMW M GmbH, the M Performance Power Kit is immediately available through all Authorized BMW centers in the US, with MSRP starting at $1,100 (plus Installation) and retains BMW's 4-Year / 50,000-Mile New Vehicle Warranty when purchased with a new vehicle. More Power. More Dynamic. More Emotion. Once the Power Kit is installed, the vehicle's rated horsepower is increased from 300 to 320 on all models. Automatic transmission-equipped models enjoy a 32 lb-ft peak torque increase (to 332 lb-ft), while manual transmission-equipped models benefit from a 17 lb-ft peak torque increase (to 317 lb-ft). All models receive a re-mapped accelerator pedal calibration for more dynamic throttle response, and the Power Kit produces a signature, highly-emotional "exhaust burble" sound during engine overrun conditions. 0–60mph acceleration is improved 0.2 seconds compared to standard 335i models, while 50–75mph times drop by a full half-second. The BMW M Performance Power Kit features comprehensive engine tuning via advanced software 335i and 335i xDrive Sedan models. The kit includes updated software or replacement engine DME (electronic control unit), high-capacity engine air intake system, signature BMW M Performance engine cover, and rocker panel decals. This gives the 335i Sedan or 335i xDrive Sedan a substantial power boost (+20 horsepower) while retaining the original 50-state legal emissions certification and fuel efficiency ratings.

Join GameSpy as we look back on some of the titles that helped define Sony as a hardware giant. To compile our list, many of us delved into our pasts. At its launch, some of us here were young men; others, high school kids; and still others, recent college grads. But we all had one thing in common: happy memories attached to amazing PSone gaming experiences. It took a lot of infighting, arguing, and embarrassing one another to reach a consensus, but we're proud of the results. We hope you will be, too. Either way, send us your comments. Let us know if we've missed something or added a game you feel unwarranted.
Ape Escape
SCEI's 3D action platformer helped the PSone take some bold gameplay steps. Aside from the fact that the game was a ton of fun to play, a large portion of the gameplay mechanics revolved around the newly released Dual Shock analog controller. In the game, the idea was catch naughty simians using a monkey-catching net (more and more crazy contraptions were earned as things progressed). Using the analog sticks to swipe the net, row boats and all kinds of other actions meant a new dynamic was there to be enjoyed. Its graphical approach was cute and cuddly, and the A.I. was pretty neat leading to some heated monkey madness. All in all a great title with addictive new mechanics.
Bryn: Aside from the fact that I was sucked into buying an imported jade green Dual Shock joypad, I really remember falling in love with Ape Escape from the first moment I netted my first hapless ape. There was something very "Nintendo" about the whole game, which made it gel even faster with my own gaming sensibilities. The new analog control system was a joy to use, and no matter how ridiculous the storyline got, I just kept on playing and playing until I was 100 percent done with the monkeys. It's a great challenge, and one that hasn't since been captured in my opinion by the series' subsequent sequels.
Eduardo: Hee hee hee. You get to hit monkeys
with a stick! What's not to like? Being the first to actually make good use of both analog sticks, Ape Escape seemed like just a gimmick, though it was quickly proven that it was actually one of the best games on the system. It had great visuals in every facet: simple and effective character designs, and striking, beautiful environments. The controls were really topnotch and offered up loads of new innovations in the gadgets you had in your arsenal. It was light-hearted, challenging, funny, and above else, great fun.

Quoting garrity:
Yes, I am in the same boat..I feel bad about it because my 2 yrd old is the one who is annoying me the most, next to my husband..I am with her all day and then I feel guilty by the end of the day because I may have not demonstrated as much patience as I normally do..People in general are bothering me too. My husband made the comment the other day about how he forgot what these pregnancy hormones can do..I never snap at him or my daughter and lately I have been doing that..It helps to know that it is just a phase and I cant control my hormones. If I realize its not ME, then it makes me feel better.
Yes, I am def with you, I also have a two year old and where I don't normally have much patience anyway, I have pretty much NONE now... it is very hard because you feel like an awful person at the end of the day.

Best Practices for Knowledge Workers
Surendra Reddy: Foreword "ACM helps organizations focus on improving or optimizing the line of interaction where our people and systems come into direct contact with customers. It's a whole different thing; a new way of doing business that enables organizations to literally become one living-breathing entity via collaboration and adaptive data-driven biological-like operating systems." Adaptive Case Management is ultimately about allowing knowledge workers to work the way that they want to work and to provide them with the tools and information they need to do so effectively.

Is your BPM project set up for success or failure?
Knowing what BPM success will look like before you even begin will help you achieve it. So will knowing what are the most common causes of failure. BPM projects fail more often as a result of missed expectations than inadequate technology. Yet a greater number of BPM projects fail to launch at all due to the inability to be a credible business case. The value of BPM is realized through planning and measurement, and the business case needs to be developed with transparent success criteria and "real world" metrics. more...

The need for Intelligent Business Operations (IBO) supported by intelligent processes is driving the need for a new convergence of process technologies lead by the iBPMS. The iBPMS changes the way processes help organizations keep up with business change. - Jim Sinur (extracted from Foreword)
Intelligent business process management is the next generation of enterprise BPM, leveraging recent technological advances to attain a degree of operational responsiveness not possible with yesterday's business process platform.
Today, companies of all types want faster and better insight into their operations. This growing demand for operational intelligence has given rise to a new, "smarter" variety of business process management suites (BPMS). more here...

These are people who figure out what needs to be done, at the same time that they do it, and there is a new approach to support this presents the logical starting point for understanding how to take advantage of ACM.

As explained by WfMC Fellow Dr. Michael zur Muehlen, "If you only focus on streamlining process execution and making it as efficient as possible the social aspect diminishes. But if you consider process discovery, the development of a shared understanding of what your operations look like, and monitoring your process environment, then social plays a big role.
"Social is all about providing context, a rich environment of data points that a streamlined workflow would be lacking otherwise. The challenge is to make this context useful, both from a social networking perspective and from an unstructured data perspective."

Highly predictable work is easy to support using traditional programming techniques, while unpredictable work cannot be accurately scripted in advance, and so requires the involvement of the workers themselves.
Adaptive Case Management (ACM) assists the knowledge worker to apply know-how and make decisions. One core adaptable quality of ACM is support for goal-seeking and goal-driven processes, where goals can be modified "in flight" by the knowledge worker.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (72 votes).
In short: This is the best Half you will ever runIn full: Another PB on this course and finally got it under the 1:40 mark. A change of course to make sure the congestion on the cycle path didn't happen, but it was still busy for the first 3 miles and only then could you break away. Everything about this race was perfect apart from the change of location to pick up your numbers. If it had been raining then it would have been a very wet cold affair, along with having to queue for your medal and T-Shirt, rather than handing them out at the end like last year when you crossed the line. I feel this was because they did not have medals for the people who entered late so needed to check that those people didn't get one. Date of review: November 20, 2012

In short: Bangor hills and heat = hard but fun!In full: Bangor 10k was a really good race,but with it being 30 degrees it was hard and made you push yourself! the water stop was a welcome,you get a water stop at 2 and 4 miles with them both being the same stop because you do a loop up a large hill twice! not easy...overall though a soild fun race,but don`t go into it expecting a pb cause that is no happening on this course!Date of review: May 27, 2012
In short: Great Scenery with a tough climb around the Orme in the middleDate of review: March 18, 2012
Date of review: March 9, 2012
In short: A really nice race, and farily beginner friendly, but they could at least have waited for the last one or two to have crossed the line before packing things away.Date of review: March 9, 2012
In short: Watch out for The Orme!In full: Apart from The Orme the route is almost completely flat but I still don't see how anyone can set a PB here! This is a great race but there's a few minor problems; there's nowhere near enough toilets for the amount of runners, the first couple of miles is too narrow and the sand in the last couple of miles is a nightmare for tired legs. I'm sure there was no sand in 2010. I'll be back for my 3rd go in 2012 though!Date of review: March 9, 2012
In short: Adore this race, my first every half! Give it a go but mind out for the Great Orme!Date of review: March 9, 2012
In short: fantastic, loved every minute of itIn full: they need to set people off in stages, as it was a little packed on the cycle path, that spoils your rhythm and pace. the only way to get ahead of the crowd is to get to the start line first. apart from that i loved every minute, and got a PB which was a surprise. Date of review: December 13, 2011
In short: Cracking event in beautiful scenery. Great organisation, event gets better each year!Date of review: November 26, 2011

Product description
An inside look at how the battle off the field affects the competition on the field of america's most popular sport--from one of the Nfl's most successful and respected head coaches.Fresh off the sidelines from a nine-year stint as one of the most successful leaders in pro football, Super Bowl-winning head coach Brian Billick has written a book about the sport he knows and loves, giving readers a fresh perspective on America's Game. Combining his own experiences with a wealth of new interviews gained through his unsurpassed access to pro football's most influential figures, Billick has written a vibrant, compelling account of the true state of the game today, and the dangers that it faces in the near future. The National Football League stands as perhaps America's last great mass entertainment, the rare enterprise that brings together a broad cross-section of our increasingly niche-driven marketplace. But even as the game has grown more popular, so has the financial pressure and stakes for all concerned. In this taut, lucid breakdown of the game's inner workings, Billick shows how dynasties are built and teams assembled, and he explains in detail how the economic pressures of the modern NFL can affect coaches and players alike. Billick welcomes fans into the locker rooms and the boardrooms for a revealing portrait of pro football and a penetrating look at the forces that will vie for control of America's most popular game in the future.

Review quote
"Like Brian Billick, I've experienced the ultimate highs and lows of being a head coach in the NFL, so I read "More Than a Game" with great personal interest. Brian writes with fascinating detail about a wide range of topics facing the sport. There's eye-opening perspective on how the game has evolved, and how he sees it changing in the future. If you care about pro football, this is a tremendous book and a pleasure to read -- I felt like I was in the room and on the field with him in each chapter." -- Super Bowl-winning head coach Jon Gruden

BulleTrain is a non-stop, shoot-'em-up game that allows the player to step into the boots of one tough hombre who refuses to give into the man and accept his severance package. Miles Stone was the owner of a small shipping company on the planet Glendon-19 until the day Elaborate Acquisitions and the bullet trains reached his small town. Led by the dastardly JR the mega-corporation devised an elaborate scheme to buy, then sell, then buy again, then shut down Miles Stone Delivery. Left on the streets with nothing but his wits and a giant gun strapped to his delivery truck, Miles seeks payback. It's time to hand out the pink slips...in BLOOD.

I'm always surprised-and, okay, a little peeved-when my mention of an arts background is often met with a puzzled look followed by the somewhat skeptical question, "What do you do with that?" The truth is there's a lot to do with that, especially now-at a time when images are all around us, where a website can so easily turn into an artist's own gallery and exhibition space, and because collectors, gallerists, publishers, and fans can easily find and follow artists whose work they respond to and respect.

Adiabatic self-tuning in a silicon microdisk optical resonator
Optics Express, Vol. 16, Issue 19, pp. 14801-14811 (2008)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (980 KB)
We demonstrate a method for adiabatically self-tuning a silicon microdisk resonator. This mechanism is not only able to sensitively probe the fast nonlinear cavity dynamics, but also provides various optical functionalities like pulse compression, shaping, and tunable time delay.

How I Survived a 55 mph Headon Collision
It was a misty rainy Tuesday on July 21, 1997 and I was on my way back to my hometown of Perry,NY from visiting a friend in nearby Batavia,NY and driving a 1984 Ford Ranger pickup with utility body back of the cab. The truck was a bright yellow in color and the highway was NY 246 enroute to Perry. At about 10:25 am, a grey Pontiac 6000 stationwagon crossed the center line and impacted with my Ranger head on. Both vehicles were travelling at 55 mph. At the time of the accident, my gas tank was nearly full, which was one factor in my favor. Soon after, the wonderful Perry Fire Department responded with their Rescue truck, an engine and three ambulances and a Mercy Flight helicopter also responded and reached the scene relatively quickly. The lower part of my steering wheel was bent toward the dashboard. My seatbelt/shoulder harness held me firmly in place. The fireman who came over to my vehicle recognized me and kept me apprised of what was going on and how the rescue operation was to proceed. The driver who had caused it, was the first to be extricated from his vehicle and transferred to the chopper as he was the most seriously hurt of the four of us involved. Once the occupants of the car that plowed into me were safely out, it was my turn and the Perry crew went to work on cutting my door open so they could get me out. One firefighter put a collar on my neck as a precautionary measure, which I told him it was a wise precaution, then two other firefighters slipped a backboard behind me so they could get me onto the guerney for the trip to the Warsaw,NY hospital.At that time it was determined that a smashed right heal was my only injury of consequence and very painful at that. It took three ambulances and one helicopter to get everyone to the hospital. I was in for just 3 days and surgery took just about an hour. I cannot thank the Perry Fire Department and the Ambulance crew enough, which is why I want to volunteer to help them out any way I can. It was a rescue job every bit as profesional as you can get from any paid department. Perry's equipment may not always be the newest, but it is everybit as good as the newer rigs found in most big city departments. Based in this experience, I regard Perry Fire Department as a shining example of what a top notch small town fire department should be. These guys, like those of FDNY, are the greatest. God bless 'em all and God bless America. My thanks for a job well done.
Jim Mancuso
I'm glad to see a decent ending. So many of our citizens suffer much , much more. You probably look at the world a bit different now.

do let us know how you like it :)
I will......
Just checked tracking and they will be here tomorrow lunchtime
Just received them and have had a quick 30 mins listen.
I like them very much on initial listening. The Flat 4 Kaede are the most BA sounding, dynamic driver IEM I have heard.....................
haha, it is sort of hard to know whether that is a good thing or bad considering why people buy dynamic IEM for....
Or just correct sounding. Which this IEM certainly is to my ears, although there is some emphasis to the highs.
looking forward for your revision considering the fine lines of product you have under your signature.
Congrats Gavin for your Kaede
Kevin love his Kaede too
I wish one day I can hear Kevin Kaede
I wish one day I can steal Gavin's Kaede.
I find, for me, the Sony Hybrids are the best tips for these IEMs. I tried and compared with the Ortofon and UE900 tips.
With the Sony tips, and using the C4pro, the Flat 4 Maple is indeed sounding very nice!
Same i have been using Sony hybrids since the Sui to Kaede.
I feel that there is very little impact on the bass and it is in between tight and loose.
I have nothing against the Sony Hybrid. Even the smaller sound bore doesn't really bother me, but my ears are very sensitive and the Sonys make my ears develop sores after a few days. Ortofon it is till the end - at least it would seem so.
I think the Sony Hybrids takes a little bit of the heat out of the highs, and adds a little solidity to the bass. Although the soundstage feels a little narrower.
Oh you are allergic to them? That is a shame.
I can not get a proper seal with the Ortofon, which is funny, as I use Ortofon tips in all my other Universals that they fit and seal really well?
I can't remember if this was ever shared here (or in other Ocharaku threads). This video of the Ocharaku technology came from them on a CD they were handing out at the Fujiya Portable show on Feb 9th this year :-
Not allergic, but the ridge in the sony tips, and the material is a bit too hard for my sensitive ears. I've found only the ortofon to work day in day out. That, and its wide mouth tend to, if fit is properly attained, exert less of an impact on sound than some other tips - of course, for better or worse.
Well I opted for the cheaper SUI so looking forward to how that will sound :).
Wow you pulled the trigger ! Let us know how it compares with the 1plus2...

Croshere a Warrior?, Barnes hires new agent.

If we trade Marco, we have almost no outside threat outside of maybe Jackson.
And Al Harrington (who shot 40% for 3 last year).
And Matt Barnes (who just resigned). And Kelenna Azuibuke (who shot near 50% for 3 in limited time). And Monta Ellis (who, coming out of high school, was rumored to be a dead-eye 3-point shooter). And either James Posey (who we'd get in a Pietrus trade) or Mickael Pietrus (who we'll resign if we have no other options). GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |
Al has never shot that good, and I am not sure that he will do it again. Matt Barnes is good coming off the bench, I will give you that. Kelenna shot, just like you said, in limited time. He is unproven. Monta is a terrible three point shooter, he shoots bricks, and passes them up most the time. Posey might be okay, but Pietrus is garbage. He can shoot the corner three when he gets hot, but he isnt hot much. |
Harrington's percentage has slowly risen his entire career. Even if he doesn't nail 45% of them next year, he'll likely hit 38-40% of them. Kelenna and Monta are unproven in the NBA, but so is Marco Belinelli, so your point cancels itself out. If Marco is our savior from beyond the arc, Monta's reputation and Kelenna's skill that he showed last season definitely count, too. And James Posey is an excellent shooter. Any guy who can consistently hover around 40% in the NBA is excellent. GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |
Yeah, but Marco has been playing professionally for, what, 5 years? He isnt unproven, he has proved himself in Europe. It is all about what you consider proven. |
I'd consider a 28-point NBA game worth way more than 90% of what goes on in Europe. Azuibuke may not get 20 minutes a night, but he's ALWAYS good when he does play.
But he hasnt been able to prove himself enough for me to say that he is our answer behind the line.
If you admit that Barnes is a 3-point shooter after ONE good year, you have to say the same about Harrington.
That gives us three good shooters (Jackson, Harrington, Barnes), to go along with 'unproven' players like Azuibuke. How many do we need? GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |
Both Barnes and Harrington are streaky shooters, but Barnes is in a zone more than Harrington is.
Huh??? Al make 43% of his 3pt this year, Barnes 36%. Barnes had MADE a grand total of 10 3pts in his 3 year career up until this past season. I can certainly see the case to say that this might have been a career year for Al in terms of 3, but there is just ZERO historical evidence to suggest that Barnes is a better or more consistent 3pt shooter than Al _____________________________________________________
http://WWW.GOLDENSTATEWARRIORS-RT.COM |
I based it on last year. I really dont care what Barnes did up until last year. When they were both on the Warriors, it seemed like Barnes was making more than Al was. It might not have been the case, but it seemed like it. If you have a game winning shot, and you are telling your team the play, who are you giving the ball to, Al or Barnes? I take Matt. |
Harrington can shoot the three but is not someone who tkes a whole heap. Barnes showed ge was a good outside shooter but Azu sisn't play enough to show anything and Monta became a far lesser outside shooter migya make the ring fall on ya |
Following the trade from Indiana, Al Harrington shot 42% for 3-pointers as a Warriors. Matt Barnes, as badabing pointed out, shot 36% on the year. The proof is in the pudding. Al also hit a game-winning lay-up for Golden State at the buzzer during the regular season against the 76ers (http://www.nba.com/games/20070202/GSWPHI/recap.html). Has Matt Barnes ever hit a buzzer-beater...? GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |
I wouldn't want any of those two taking the last shot. Are they serviceable shooters?. Yeah, both of them (even tho stats say Al's better, Barnes hit some key shots last year).
But I'd cringe at the thought of any of those two taking the game winner... |
Agreed. I'd rather have Baron, Monta, and Jackson all taking the final shot over those two.
However, thanks to a quick spin-move in the paint, Al has a buzzer-beater under his belt as a Warrior. I don't think Barnes can say the same. I'm not discounting Barnes; he took some key shots for us last year. But so did Harrington... and whats more, Harrington actually won us a game. Barnes can't say the same. GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |

Fifth extension for Charoen's F&N offer
Publication Date : 03-01-2013
Thai tycoon Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi has yet again extended the deadline for his general offer for beverage and property conglomerate Fraser and Neave.
Charoen's investment vehicle TCC Assets said yesterday the unchanged S$8.88 per share offer will run till January 10 - the fifth extension to the offer. Yesterday's deadline was the culmination of four earlier extensions.
All eyes will now be on the consortium led by property firm Overseas Union Enterprise (OUE) which has countered with a higher S$9.08 a share or a total of S$13.1 billion. OUE's offer lapses today with market players also expecting an extension on its part.
The market has pushed F&N's share price well above both bids. The counter slipped three cents to S$9.67 yesterday.
The numerous extensions from Charoen have injected some uncertainty into the process, and traders may face a longer wait before the parties unveil higher bids - if they do.
OUE's offer document went out on December 6 last year and the offer can run for a maximum of 60 days, according to Singapore's takeover rules. This gives it until February 4 to work with, but it will need to leave any offer open for at least 14 days if it revises a bid. This means it has until January 21 to revise the bid.
Reuters yesterday quoted an unnamed source as saying that OUE is expected to extend its offer to as long as the fourth week of this month. Further extensions are possible if the Securities Industry Council (SIC) agrees, The Straits Times understands.
Charoen needs the SIC's permission to extend the offer any further from the January 10 he has been given as his initial maximum offer period has expired.
The Thai tycoon is widely seen as having the upper hand, as his parties have more than 34 per cent of F&N, including acceptances. OUE has less than 15 per cent, including the acceptance from Kirin Holdings, which had agreed to tender its 14.8 per cent F&N stake to it. Kirin also agreed to buy F&N's food and beverage business for S$2.7 billion if the OUE offer is successful.
JP Morgan, the independent financial adviser (IFA) to F&N's independent directors, on Monday deemed Kirin's offer for F&N's food and beverage unit to be "fair but not reasonable".
OUE is bound to vote in favour of the sale of the unit to Kirin only if the offer is deemed "fair and reasonable".
"(Mr Charoen) is probably waiting for OUE's move," said DMG & Partners analyst Goh Han Peng.
Corporate lawyer Robson Lee expects OUE to extend its offer today if it cannot secure enough acceptances to make it unconditional. "In this case it could be envisaged that Kirin could revise its offer for the food and beverage business to secure a more favourable opinion from the IFA."
